Trivia

• Baz Luhrmann presented and produced the song that hit the charts in 1999, "Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)." The lyrics were written by Chicago Tribune columnist Mary Schmich, and the vocals were performed by Lee Perry.
• Produced and directed a hit re-invention of the classic opera "La Boheme" for the stage in Sydney, taking place in the 1950s post-war Paris, stressing acting more than big "Pavarotti style voices", to create an experience for "people who might be a little intimidated by opera". It was eventually filmed in 1993 for PBS's "Great Performances".
• Baz Luhrmann and Catherine Martin's first child, Lillian (Lilly) Amanda Luhrmann, was born in Sydney on Friday, 10th October 2003.
• His first three films, "Strictly Ballroom", "Romeo + Juliet" and "Moulin Rouge", were dubbed the "Red Curtain Trilogy" as they all fell under a particular style of film making. Luhrmann is now changing direction and plans to make a trilogy of historical epics, the first of these being the upcoming "Alexander the Great".
• Did ballroom dance as a child.
• His father died the first day of filming 'Moulin Rouge!'
• Family once owned a gas station and a farm.
• In late 2004, he directed the world's most expensive advertisement for Chanel No 5, a 4-minute short film titled "No 5: The Film" starring Nicole Kidman (who he worked with for Moulin Rouge!) and Rodrigo Santoro. The film ad, about a fairy-tale romance in which Chanel is part of the story but is not what the story is about, cost £18 million and made Kidman a Guinness World Record holder for highest paid actress in a commercial (she netted .71 million). Varying length versions of the film ad were shown on television, and - a first for Chanel - in movie theaters. Costumes were designed by Karl Lagerfeld and a score by Debussy. Kidman wore £17m worth of real gems.
• Was nominated for Broadway's 2003 Tony Award as Best Director (Musical) for "La Boheme."
• Son William Alexander Luhrmann was born June 8th, 2005
• Was among the guests at Nicole Kidman and Keith Urbans' 's wedding
